The Apple iOS brings to it's abode a high security system that cannot be breech. When an iPhone or iPad crashes, it is generally due to hardware deficit or system wide failure. Thus the iOS users gets a regular updates to enhance improvement and fix those malicious bugs. However i recently discovered a new malicious blank text message that is capable of freezing any iPhone running on iOS 10.0 to 10.3 Beta 1. Aside from the freezing effect, there are also several over glitches such as the disappearance of the status bar when you're on the home screen, the lags, and many more. This is just a little prank you can play with your friends or foes. Don't panic because it's relatively not harmful (just annoying) but it can be fixed without any hassle.
